Another fun fact: you can replace the need for ullage acceleration with a Propellant Management Device that uses surface tension among other things to hold propellant enough to fuel an impulse that will settle the rest of the tank.

For very low accelerations, they can even draw propellant "upwards" against the acceleration.
